I could say @Crewella get your sick bucket out but I won't, that's cruel and not funny, childish.. wait... what.... oh well

DVD?

"Backdraft"

Donald 'Shadow' Rimgale: In a word, Brian, what is this job all about?

Firefighter Brian McCaffrey: Fire.

Donald 'Shadow' Rimgale: It's a living thing, Brian. It breathes, it eats, and it hates. The only way to beat it is to think like it. To know that this flame will spread this way across the door and up across the ceiling, not because of the physics of flammable liquids, but because it wants to. Some guys on this job, the fire owns them, makes 'em fight it on it's level, but the only way to truly kill it is to love it a little. Just like Ronald.



This mod I did enjoy making in a way

"Your kidding stu we all thought you hate them!!"

ok, ok i like the creation the quote from backdraft above is true of stabwood its easy to buy a block, ebay, facebook but for me I'm a purist to make a mod is putting part of you into it, some of my soul in the colours, the name, maybe I'm talking crap but for me creation is picking up some wood and having the image of that wood in a mod in my hand. so I make the block the wood the lot.

every mod I make a block approval picture goes to the customer the above block ive shaped and made square
the colours are gold mira, red, blood red pearl, black, black graphite, black pearl

the wood is a heart knot from a silver birch I should know this as I cut the branch it was attached too, whilst cutting the wind damage from the tree I was about 30ft up spiked in close to god and this is where the colour of the mod comes from red the gods colour
